Grocery Binder

March 13th, 2007 at 04:51 pm

I've heard raves about having a Grocery Binder and I've been meaning to give it a try. The thought of getting it started a month before we left was unappealing, but now we're moved and the binder has begun.

First off I am amazed at how different the prices can be from one store to the next, sometimes a dollar or more!! Seeing that for the first time really enforced the fact that I needed this. We also just subscribed to the paper here so I'm looking forward to getting coupons from that. Those things combined along with planning meals should hopefully dramatically cut our grocery bill!

Right now I'm tracking the store, price and size (to determine price per unit). I've already learned to also keep track of the brand (to use coupons!), but is there anything else I should keep track of???

    i keep track of sales prices (both advertised and unadvertised) for the stores i shop. that way i know my steaks go on sale every 2 months, whole fryers every month and a half, etc. helps me know what to stock up on and when.

    good luck!

    The price book/grocery binder has really opened my eyes too. I mostly keep track of toiletries with it.

    I really need to start tracking the sales like Tinapbeana does.
